One of the troopers, a 42-year-old male, sustained minor injuries and was taken to the hospital.

The troopers were headed eastbound on Interstate 94 near Kalmbach Road in Sylvan Township at 10:23 a.m. when the 42-year-old trooper ran off the roadway into the center median, lost control and was thrown from his 2014 Harley Davidson police motorcycle, MSP Sgt. Mark Thompson said in a news release.

The trooper sustained minor injuries and was transported by Huron Valley Ambulance to Chelsea Community Hospital for treatment, Thompson said.

A second crash occurred when traffic slowed for the motorcycle leaving the roadway, the release said.

A 2007 Dodge Charger being driven by a 43-year-old Battle Creek man traveling eastbound on I-94 slowed down for traffic after the motorcycle left the road. A 2005 Dodge van being driven by a 78-year-old Jackson man was unable to stop and struck the Dodge Charger, Thompson said.

The Dodge van then veered to the left and sideswiped an Illinois State Police, 2013 Harley Davidson motorcycle, operated by a 33-year-old Illinois trooper, according to the release.

"No injuries resulted from this contact on only minor damage," Thompson said in the release.

The driver of the Dodge Charger sustained minor injuries and was transported by Huron Valley Ambulance to Chelsea Community Hospital.
